The Kingdom of France , was a state in Western Europe. It was one of the most powerful states in Europe, a great power and an early colonial power. It originated as West Francia , the western half of the Carolingian empire, after the Treaty of Verdun . A branch of the Carolingian dynasty continued to rule until 987, when Hugh Capet was elected king and founded the Capetian dynasty. France continued to be ruled by the Capetians and their cadet lines—the Valois and Bourbon—until the monarchy was overthrown in 1792 during the French Revolution. France in the Middle Ages was a de-centralised, feudal state. In Brittany and Catalonia (now a part of Spain) the authority of the French king was barely felt. Lorraine and Provence were states of the Holy Roman Empire and not yet a part of France. Initially, West Frankish kings were elected by the secular and ecclesiastic magnates, but the regular coronation of the eldest son of the reigning king during his father's lifetime established the principle of male primogeniture, which became codified in the Salic law. During the late Middle Ages, the Kings of England laid claim to the French throne, resulting in a series of conflicts known as the Hundred Years' War (1337--1453). Subsequently France sought to extend its influence into Italy, but was defeated by Spain in the ensuing Italian Wars (1494--1559). France in the early modern era was increasingly centralised, the French language began to displace other languages from official use, and the monarch ruled with near absolute power. Religiously France became divided between the Catholic majority and a Protestant minority, the Huguenots. After a series of civil wars, the Wars of Religion (1562--1598), tolerance was granted the Huguenots in the Edict of Nantes. France laid claim to large stretches of North America, known collectively as New France. Wars with Great Britain led to the loss of much of this territory by 1763. French intervention in the American Revolutionary War helped secure the independence of the new United States of America. The Kingdom of France adopted a constitution in 1791, but was abolished a year later and replaced with the First French Republic. The monarchy was restored in 1814 by Louis XVIII and lasted—except for the Hundred Days in 1815—until the French Revolution of 1848. History Carolingians legacy During the later years of the elderly Charlemagne's rule, the Vikings made advances along the northern and western perimeters of the Kingdom of the Franks. After Charlemagne's death in 814 his heirs were incapable of maintaining political unity and the empire began to crumble. The Treaty of Verdun of 843 divided the Carolingian Empire into three parts, and Charles the Bald ruled over West Francia, roughly corresponding to the territory of modern France. Viking advances were allowed to increase, and their dreaded longboats were sailing up the Loire and Seine rivers and other inland waterways, wreaking havoc and spreading terror. During the reign of Charles the Simple (898--922), Normans under Rollo from Norway, were settled in an area on either side of the River Seine, downstream from Paris, that was to become Normandy. Capetians The Carolingians were to share the fate of their predecessors: after an intermittent power struggle between the two dynasties, the accession in 987 of Hugh Capet, Duke of France and Count of Paris, established the Capetian dynasty on the throne. With its offshoots the houses of Valois and Bourbon was to rule France for more than 800 years. The old order left the new dynasty in immediate control of little beyond the middle Seine and adjacent territories, while powerful territorial lords such as the 10th- and 11th-century counts of Blois accumulated large domains of their own through marriage and through private arrangements with lesser nobles for protection and support. The area around the lower Seine became a source of particular concern when Duke William took possession of the kingdom of England by the Norman Conquest of 1066, making himself and his heirs the King's equal outside France (where he was still nominally subject to the Crown).

Luc Arbogast ! Incroyable Chanteur médiéval et candidat the Voice 2 sur TF1 en 2013.

www.lucarbogast.fr http://www.lucarbogast.fr/boutique/ Découvrez les 4 autres albums de Luc Arbogast ! www.lucarbogast.fr Luc Arbogast candidat "the voice "2ème edition sur TF1. Luc Arbogast, né en 1975 à La Rochelle, est un musicien chanteur contreténor fortement inspiré par la musique médiévale. Luc Arbogast est né d'un père militaire d'origine strasbourgeoise et d'une mère femme au foyer d'origine Allemande. Il passe son enfance dans le petit hameau des « Égaux de Landrais » dans la circonscription d'Aigrefeuille d'Aunis au sud-est de La Rochelle. Luc Arbogast chante et joue une musique inspirée de la France médiévale et surtout de la tradition paysanne où se chevauchent mélancolie et spiritualité. Muni d'un bouzouki, de grelots et d'un Laúd, ce musicien autodidacte manie le clair-obscur avec ferveur et beaucoup de sincérité. Il s'inspire parfois des Cantigas de Santa María et de Lieder de Walter von der Vogelweide, de Hildegard von Bingen, ou de Guillaume de Machault1. Il a également le secret de nombreux morceaux chantés traditionnels, réarrangés par ses soins ou composés par lui, tel un branle double mélancolique chanté en français, qui aborde la mélancolie de l'enfance perdue par un texte plus contemporain, ainsi que des chants inspirés de scènes du quotidien de la vie du Moyen Âge au début du xxe siècle : chants de quête, chants crépusculaires, amour courtois, deuil, mariages. Après s'être produit essentiellement dans la rue2, sur les parvis des cathédrales ou lors de fêtes médiévales organisées dans toute la France 3, il aborde désormais une carrière professionnelle.2003 : Fjall d'yr Vinur Albums 2004 : Domus 2007 : Hortus Dei 2009 : Aux Portes de Sananda 2012 : Canticum in Terra A countertenor is a male singing voice whose vocal range is equivalent to that of a contralto, mezzo-soprano, or (less frequently) a soprano, usually through use of falsetto, or far more rarely than normal, modal voice. A pre-pubescent male who has this ability is called a treble. This term is used exclusively in the context of the classical vocal tradition, although numerous popular music artists also prefer employing falsetto. The term first came into use in England during the mid 17th century, and was in wide use by the late 17th century. However, the use of adult male falsettos in polyphony, commonly in the alto range, was common in all-male sacred choirs for some decades previous, as early as the mid-16th century, and modern-day ensembles such as the Tallis Scholars and The Sixteen maintain the use of male altos in period works. During the Romantic period, the popularity of the countertenor voice waned and few compositions were written with that voice type in mind. In the Early Middle Ages, depopulation, deurbanization, and barbarian invasions, begun in Late Antiquity, continued apace. The barbarian invaders formed new kingdoms in the remains of the Western Roman Empire. In the 7th century North Africa and the Middle East, once part of the Eastern Roman Empire, became an Islamic Empire after conquest by Muhammad's successors. Although there were substantial changes in society and political structures, the break with Antiquity was not complete, because most of the new kingdoms incorporated many of the extant Roman institutions; while monasteries were founded as Christianity expanded in western Europe. In the 7th and 8th centuries, the Franks, under the Carolingian dynasty, established an empire covering much of western Europe; the Carolingian Empire endured until the 9th century, when it succumbed to the pressures of invasion — the Vikings from the north; the Magyars from the east, and the Saracens from the south. During the High Middle Ages, which began after AD 1000, the population of Europe increased greatly as technological and agricultural innovations allowed trade to flourish and crop yields to increase. Manorialism — the organization of peasants into villages that owed rent and labor services to the nobles; and feudalism — the political structure whereby knights and lower-status nobles owed military service to their overlords, in return for the right to rent from lands and manors - were two of the ways society was organized in the High Middle Ages. Kingdoms became more centralized after the breakup of the Carolingian Empire.
